@Washedupcynic Pretty much, yeah — Windows fingerprints the connected display (via theEDID it sends over HDMI/DP) and pulls a matching driver from WindowsUpdate automatically. The catch is that same recognition step is how adevice ID gets logged on your side. That's the exact thing I got obsessedwith and ended up building Blacklight for — it's open-source and local,and it shows you these hidden IDs (masked by default) so you can actuallysee what got recorded. blacklight.tools
